On top of the Dealers room entrance being really far away, I'd have to just add that as for a main event the masquerades keep getting more and more disorganized and annoying.

There was that screwup with the front of the line issue, and then the cluster of people that rushed in to be seated, but on top of that, there was issues with lighting and sound throughout the whole production. I really try to enjoy the masquerade as it used to be my favorite part of anime next, but its been getting worse throughout the years. No offense, but some of the skits were sub par, and they really need to do a sound check and make audio completely heard because I didn't hear a damn thing.
